That is very informative, I had the original system replaced (failing pcm1 unit) with a cartoys setup.

Found some replacements - assuming this is a good price for stock used replacements.

I did some forum research and see that some people replace their door speakers with some 'subs' instead of mids.
Counts describe captured discussions, not unique people or a diagnosis. Author identities are not reliably stored. Exact duplicate evidence is counted once across matching discussions; one discussion counts at most once per action/state. Multiple repairs reported together remain a combination. Suggestions and failed attempts do not establish a fix. Matches cover whole discussions and can include related faults, model variants and incomplete threads.

So I had a stereo and 6 way amp installed and it took only 3 weeks to blow out my stock door speakers!

Does that distort the sound at all? Aren't the doors the only mids in the setup?
dash - doors - rear seats?
Thanks guys!
The passenger-side door lock mechanism has self-terminated in the locked position, and I've ordered a new one. Problem is, the driver-side key, central lock and inside passenger handle do not release the door to remove the door panel and access the lock mechanism. Is there a clever magical way to release the lock without mangling the door panel with closed-door removal? PART 2: Does anyone have experience removing the door panel (and releasing the 9 retaining clips) from a closed/locked door perspective?
The OEM door speakers are small enclosure subs, not mids. If you have the HiFi option, which includes the door speakers the the stock amp separates the frequencies and send the low frequency signals tote doors.
If you were sending the full spectrum frequencies to the doors that may explain why the speakers are blown.
Quite a predicament. Your situation appears near impossible to remedy. If I were in yours shoes, I would first attempt to unlock the door with a slim jim. Just a thought. Good luck.

I ordered those stock speakers for a temporary setup right now, until I can re-do the whole system from scratch.
I appreciate your help!
The interior door handle cable mechanism is mechanical and you should have been able to pull to open. If not, I have no answers for your first question. However, there are multiple videos for the 996/986 door panel removal located on YouTube. The locking mechanism itself is a little more difficult as you have to align the key pin into the mechanism before seating it in place to bolt up. If you need help PM me. However, I'm out of town until Saturday.
